The meant-to-inspire books in this series are designed for scientifically literate non-specialists who want to know the latest discoveries in theoretical physics and cosmology in a non-technical language. The level of presentation is appropriate for readers with basic undergraduate background in modern physics and quantum mechanics. More

Topics

Cosmology

The standard models of cosmology -- the big bang theory without the
inflationary theory -- had to suffer from the three problems
, namely, the smoothness problem, the horizon problem, and the
flatness problem. More

Quantum Mechanics

Developed in the 1920's by great physicists Schrödinger, Pauli, Heisenberg, Bohr, Born,Fermi, Dirac and
others, it describes the laws of the nature for the subatomic world. More

Theory of Everything

The phrase "Theory of Everything" has been used in the scientific and semi-scientific community within the last 30 years. It usually refers to such a theory that formulates and unifies both quantum mechanics and the general theory of relativity. More

String Theory

The concept of string theory is one of the most popular concepts of the last 20 years in theoretical physics. More
